What is a Master Certification?

A Master Certification is all the relevant courses you need to take to be master certified in this area of production. Upon the completion of all of these courses you will be Master Certified in this area of production. 

After viewing each course you will be given a test of your knowledge and understanding of the subject matter. You have the ability to pause your course and go back to review sections as you are learning. You will be given three attempts to take each test. If you do not pass the test after the third time you will need to re-enroll in the course. 

Once you pass each test you will be issued a Stage 32 Master Certificate recognizing your efforts in passing the course. You will also be listed in our master database accessible by global film commissions, productions, and any executives who are looking for talent. You will also receive a Stage 32 Certification badge that will be added to your Stage 32 profile, so people who are hiring on Stage 32 will know that you have completed a Stage 32 Certification course. 

In addition to Stage 32, we highly recommend you post your Stage 32 Certificate on your LinkedIn and other social media profiles.
